Dog trainer to the rescue!

Pet care experience

Update: my prices reflect how much rover takes from me on top of the price I normally charge. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to talk more about the prices. Follow me on Instagram at @situpforsuccessk9! I post dog training content almost daily and do my best to respond as quickly as possible. If there is something that you have questions about, including pricing, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’m not your average Rover dog sitter. My background is in helping owners and dogs learn to coexist peacefully and respectfully. Every interaction I have with your dog is intentional for their training(training happens 24/7!) and geared towards understanding their behavior. I recently moved to the PNW after living in Nashville, TN for the past six years. I initially was there for school and then starting May 2021, I stayed for an extra year to start my dog training business. I’ve been fortunate where I was really integrated in the dog community in Nashville and hope to be part of Seattle’s too! I moved here because I received an opportunity that I couldn’t turn down but that hasn’t stopped me from working with dogs! I’m testing the waters by coming back on Rover again and getting to know Seattle’s dog community! I have experience in obedience, agility, nosework, and AKC Canine Good Citizen training. I try to keep myself on my toes as I travel to dog training seminars to learn different ways and perspectives in training dogs. I’m also dabbling in the working and sports dog world by learning to be a decoy (the person who gets bitten by the dogs!).

Morgan provided exceptional care for my dog, Runner, during his week-long stay. Her frequent updates kept me reassured, and she even went above and beyond by grooming him and checking for mats on his tail and paw. Morgan's attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine love for animals make her an outstanding choice for anyone seeking a reliable and caring dog boarder. I highly recommend her services and will definitely entrust Runner to her care in the future.

Morgan was amazing and really did give Ollie the best time whilst we were away. She gave him the structure and training that he needs regularly whilst also upskilling our pup. I would 1000% recommend Morgan to anyone and will be using her services again soon!

Morgan knows what she is doing! She did a great job with my dog Zorro. He has a past of some behavioral issues so it was important for me to hire someone with dog training skills to care for him while I was on a work trip. I’m so happy with the outcome! I really appreciated the updates throughout Zorro’s stay and will likely book again!

Morgan did an amazing job with our dog. She had structured walks with him and sent us many updates on how he was doing during our dog’s stay with her. We’d suggest you use her as she is spectacular.

Information Morgan O. would like to know about your pet

It is crucial that you are comfortable with your dog being crated at my place. That being said, I would like to know how well your dog does in crates. As I interact with all my dogs as if I'm in a dog training environment, I often provide treats such as kibble to reward them. Please let me know if your dog has any food allergies. Furthermore, I would like to know of any behavioral issues I need to know ahead of time such as resource guarding or aggression towards certain dogs.

A typical day

My goal for your dog(s) isn't to exhaust them or give them free rein of playtime. I want to help them understand that their default mindset is being calm. I offer structured walks, snuffle mats, and other dog training exercises which are incorporated throughout the day.
